Some people see the glass as half full; others, half-empty. I assume it probably contains poison.

ROTFL. I think the joke goes that engineers see it as wrong size glass or something like that. One of my favorite stalls for time is to answer questions literally, like "Do you know what time it is?" "Yes." Or "Were you at the store or at the bar?" "Yes." So, with that in mind, I was projecting/anticipating a similar sort of retort in your remark. Some people see the glass as half full; others, half-empty. I assume it is. The "poison" angle had me LOL.

Has a single tweeter/blogger pointed out what is obvious to anyone who has spent time trying to make sense out of the jury instructions? Poorly organized, repetitious, plenty of irrelevant sentences, badly formatted and worded gobbledygook. If it was in the form of a flowchart where you started with Justifiable or Excusable homicide at the top diamond and yes lead to Not Guilty, we would have had a verdict already.

If you mean by that the instructions came from slavishly mechanically applying some template without doing any optimization, I think you've got the reason. If that is how hard Nelson works to explain things to a jury, she should be fired or demoted to court clerk.
